Star Tribune writer Michael Russo reported that Wild owner Craig Leipold has made arrangements to fly Wild players, staff and their families to the memorial services. Bob Suter was a scout for the Wild since 2012.
"It's the right thing to do," Wild forward Zach Parise told Russo. "It sounds cliché, but you have your team and you consider that your second family. I've known Ryan for a long time, and I'm glad that we're doing that. Even if we didn't have a plane, I'll bet you the whole team would drive. I'm just glad that we'll be there for Ryan and his family."
